When I first went off to college, I couldn’t fathom eating a meal alone in a dining hall — let alone traveling out of the country solo.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are in reportedly in hot water with Queen Elizabeth II for defying her wishes over their mode of transportation. The Cambridges seem to have a fondness for using the royal helicopter to travel between their country home at Anmer Hall and their residence in London, but they are going against palace protocols by doing so. The Queen was apparently “uncomfortable about the entire family traveling by helicopter,” according to royal expert Richard Palmer, who told The Express that there was “official unhappiness” about the family’s preferred way to travel....
First things first: Even the French — meaning non-Parisians — don’t always get it right when visiting the country’s capital. Why? Because in southwest France, pain au chocolat is called chocolatine, and in Alsace, they start their bisous (double-kiss greeting) on the left cheek, not the right.

Somewhere inside New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport is one of the city’s best speakeasies that you can enjoy if you know where to look — and if you’re an American Express cardholder with Centurion Lounge access.

As kids, our favorite part of going out to a restaurant was ordering a Shirley Temple – with extra cherries, of course. And though we loved those neon red, super-sweet maraschino cherries when we were little, these days, the cloying sweetness gets to be a bit much, and let’s be honest – they don’t even really taste like cherries....

But while a sense of community wasn’t lacking in Hermosa, I wasn’t yet a part of it, and I was missing the network I had made for myself in New York City: the barista who knew just how to make my coffee; the staff at my local market who always filled my plate with a little more than what I’d ordered; the optimistic owner of my nearest bodega and his endearingly glum cat....
